I dunno, really. It just seemed right. The two dragons fight once every 200 years - the winner, the Dawn Dragon, gets to rule over the earth and sky, and the loser, the Twilight Dragon, must go to the depths of the sea, confined. So, sunrise for the winner, sunset for the loser? Search me!

I haven't read the books or seen the movies, nor do I plan to (but you never know!) However, I do follow the LJ of the most amusing cleolinda and her m15m (Movies in Fifteen Minutes), so I know more about the Twilight series than I ever thought I would.

As for the sparklies: Twilight-esque vampires do not die in agony, or get reduced to a pile of ash in the sunshine. No! They sparkle!! I find this highly amusing ... :P

In the maker's comments on why he made it, he talks about the difference between our idealized image of women in the 80s and 90s (Buffy) and now, discussing how we've gone from a very strong independent female to a much more dependent one. It makes for interesting reading.

I read both the short description and a longer one he put on WIMN. I hope he has kids - guys like that should propogate.

It's funny... maybe it's my age... but I don't find Edward sexy. In fact, I find him revolting. Now, this is the only time I've seen him, in this vid, but if he's always like that, sorta creepy and pale and prissy, then yeah, repulsive is the word. Nowhere near the sex appeal of, say, Frank Langella's Dracula or even the devastating charm of Angel.
